My completed mini "Herald of Beezlebub". I took my initial palette inspiration from the great Salvatore Rosa painting "Human Fragility" which was appropriately painted during the Black Death. I hope you enjoy. #blackgrail #trenchcrusade #salvatorerosa #minipainting

I brought back more of the darker red/green during this last painting session and it helps get me more saturation and tone down the brightness. Like the famous song he was "pretty white for a fly guy... #trenchcrusade

Trench Crusade Hell Knight completed. The lore describes lesser fallen angels folded upon themselves and forced into infernal armor. I've imagined the armor as a prison for their divine soul whose light shines even as their halo is corrupted by the acts they are forced to commit. #trenchcrusade

Two color collograph print, format size is Artist Trading Card. Let me know if you're interested in trading, I printed several of these (this photo is representative as they all vary a little being handprinted) #artisttradingcards

My entries for the Emerald Print Exchange. I'd guess I might be the only one that chose Trench Crusade for my subject material! I'm a newb but really excited about this and what will come in the exchange! #printmaking #trenchcrusade

Black Grail palette color test. Tell me what you think. Colors were inspired by Salvatore Rosa's Black Plague era painting "Human Fragility". #trenchcrusade

Finished Sniper Priest #trenchcrusade. I was hoping to evoke the feel of a Byzantine icon, did I pull it off?

Random linocut - I used a pretty random monotype print (paint on crumpled palette paper) to put a pattern on my lino which I then used to imperfectly guide my cutting. I think it is interesting. #linocut #monoprint

Brad (he/him) @traxthetricky.bsky.social · 14/03/2026

I finished up this creepy clown I started a while back. Other than the usual mini painting techniques I uses some monoprinting ideas on part of the background. #minipainting #monoprinting

Brad (he/him) @traxthetricky.bsky.social · 28/02/2026

Tried to clean up where I could to create more depth between foreground and background and printed on some nice natural fiber paper... (coming soon to a zine)

Brad (he/him) @traxthetricky.bsky.social · 27/02/2026

First test print of this linocut. I think the chatter works to reinforce the dark gritty world but I'd love to hear thoughts. Original sketch is based on an old WW1 photograph of soldiers on a road to which I added some elements. #linocuts #trenchcrusade
